AlixPartners can you please share about the TC and WLB for new parents?
I'm approached by the AP recruiter and in the final interview process for an SVP role (digital practice).
Already have two other offers (Strategy @ Walmart, 300K TC, and Marketing@ Amazon, 220K TC). 10 YOE
1. Will AP's SVP TC be higher than $300K? What's the breakdown?
2. Would you choose AP over Strategy @ Walmart or Marketing @ Amazon?
3. How difficult is it for new parents? I still want to spend time with my newborn.

Email first. Invite after they've agreed to meet you. Otherwise it's presumptuous and could rub the wrong way.
If I don't know you and we haven't had a conversation where I have said 'feel free to drop a time on my calendar', please send an email first and introduce yourself. That's common courtesy. If I get a calendar invite for 30 minutes from someone I don't know, and who can't take 5 minutes to write an introduction, it doesn't take priority in a busy schedule and smacks of self-importance. YMMV.
Everyone has a different preference. I like an email followed by an invite because it’s easy to follow. Also, calendar invites on the phone are hard to see sometimes. If I just see an invite, I may hold off responding till I open my computer
Most definitely send me an email first introducing yourself. Wait for a reply and then schedule a call. Never send a calendar invite directly. Awfully presumptuous and frankly, rude. There’s a proper etiquette to do everything and this is the right protocol if you want to build a connection with this person.
Disclaimer: everyone’s different. No doubt. Some may perceive one electronic communication different from the other. However, err on the side of caution and be respectful
Not an SM but I usually do email first then schedule. Sometimes their calendars aren't up to date or they prefer certain days/times so generally leave that to them.
Don't schedule time on my calendar unless I've agreed to it ahead of time..
Also, it's ok to ask a couple of times if you don't get a response.
@A1, thanks for the insight!!
Best case is someone brokers an intro from you, someone who thinks it would be good for us to chat. Bar that, ping me. Emails get lost in the shuffle; it’s never personal but don’t feel bad about following up.
@A3, I’ve had times where I reached out 3 times in 2 months and no response 😭 should I try pinging?
Invite is fine, did it all the time when I started. Key is to A) make sure it’s not in a day or two B) clearly introduce yourself and why you’re reaching out to this person in the meeting invite body 3) offer to reschedule if they want
Idea is to remove friction whenever possible. All they have to do is accept. With busy people it’s easy to lose a thread
